RAPE/CRISIS

A compelling investigation of the trauma of rape, portraying the aftermath of a rape and
the work of the Rape Crisis Center in Austin, Texas. Skillfully blending dramatic narrative
with documentary footage, and intermingling actors in dramatic scenes with real-life
police, prosecutors, doctors, nurses and Rape Crisis Center workers, the film focuses on
the experience of the rape victim, the interrogation of the accused rapist, and a classroom
training session for volunteer counselors at the Rape Crisis Center.

**Highly Recommended "...useful in college courses on sexuality, abnormal behavior, sex
roles, and counseling and will serve as a useful training film in hospital and clinic
settings."--Science Books & Films
